Kids in the Garden: Seed Starting FAMILY PROGRAM IN-PERSON WORKSHOP
Saturday, April 2, 2022, 12:15 PM - 1:00 PM
As adults get excited to procure the seeds for Spring gardening, kids can share in the gardening spirit by starting some seeds of their own! Sign up for a hands-on lesson about seeds, and caring for growing seedlings. Each child will be able to bring home a 6 pack to care for and eventually transplant into a container or in-ground garden. This will be geared for children 6-12, but can accommodate older or younger. Happening simultaneously as the CCE Seed Swap event! Please note: this is not a drop-off class, we expect children to attend with their caregiver so they can learn, together.
